Ahh yes, the casket cars which you can't open from the inside if they lose power.
Edit: The rear doors do not have a mechanical lever, so you have to leave through the front doors in an emergency.

I have many objections to Musk and Tesla, but I bought a used Model 3 before learning about all the insanity. The doors are designed to open with power, it's true; this is because they were built without a top frame, apparently to reduce weight, so the powered button lowers the window as the door opens to avoid damaging the glass.
However, there is an emergency lever (that would be easy to miss for sure) that just mechanically opens the door with no need for power. I have used this once to make sure it works and can confirm it exists and functions. Presumably, this is true of the Model Y as well; I can't imagine that a vehicle could pass any kind of inspection if there were no way to get out without power.
The frameless window has nothing to do with the decision. Cars with mechanical door handles have been retracting the window on opening longer than Teslas been making cars.
